Peter Gabriel β i/o β Box Set This Box-Set comes in a foil blocked, clamshell box with obi-band, containing both Bright-Side and Dark-Side stereo mixes of the album across 4 pieces of black vinyl cut at 33rpm. The same mixes also appear across two CDs and the In-Side Mixes on a Blu-ray in Dolby Atmos. The Blu-ray also contains 24/96 versions of the Bright-Side and Dark-Side stereo mixes.Also included is a casebound book with expanded liner notes and a poster. i/o is 12 tracks of grace, gravity and great beauty that provide welcome confirmation of not only Peterβs ongoing ability to write stop-you-in-your-tracks songs but also of that thrilling voice, still perfectly, delightfully intact. Throughout the album the intelligent and thoughtful β often thought-provoking β songs tackle life and the universe. Our connection to the world around us β βIβm just a part of everythingβ Peter sings on title track i/o β is a recurring motif, but so too the passing of time, mortality and grief, alongside such themes as injustice, surveillance and the roots of terrorism. But this is not a solemn record. While reflective, the mood is never despondent; i/o is musically adventurous, often joyous and ultimately full of hope, topped off as it is, by the rousingly optimistic closing song, Live and Let Live. βAfter a years-worth of full moon releases, Iβm very happy to see all these new songs back together on the good ship i/o and ready for their journey out into the world.β β Peter Gabriel Recorded mostly at Real World Studios and Peterβs home studio, the lengthy gestation of i/o means it has a sizeable cast list. Peter has kept his trusty inner circle of musicians close to hand, which means guitarist David Rhodes, bassist Tony Levin and drummer Manu KatchΓ© are sterling presences throughout. Several songs bear the fingerprints of long-time associate Brian Eno, whilst there are notable contributions from Richard Russell, pianist Tom Cawley, trumpeters Josh Shpak and Paolo Fresu, cellist Linnea Olsson and keyboard player Don E. Peterβs daughter Melanie contributes warm backing vocals, as does RΓoghnach Connolly of The Breath, while Real World regulars Richard Chappell, Oli Jacobs, Katie May and Richard Evans collectively provide programming and play various instruments. Soweto Gospel Choir and Swedish all-male choir Oprhei DrΓ€ngar lend their magnificent harmonies to a selection of tracks, and the mass strings of the New Blood Orchestra, led by John Metcalfe, both soothe and soar. Renowned for being a boundary-pushing artist, i/o is not simply a collection of a dozen songs. All 12 tracks are subject to two stereo mixes: the Bright-Side Mix, handled by Mark βSpikeβ Stent, and the Dark-Side Mix, as reshaped by Tchad Blake. βWe have two of the greatest mixers in the world in Tchad and Spike and they definitely bring different characters to the songs. Tchad is very much a sculptor building a journey with sound and drama, Spike loves sound and assembling these pictures, so heβs more of a painter.β A third version β the In-Side Mix, in Dolby Atmos, comes courtesy of Hans-Martin Buff βdoing a wonderful job generating these much more three-dimensional mixesβ and is included in a three-disc set, including Blu-ray. Continuing the idea developed for Peterβs US and UP albums, he has again invited a range of visual artists to contribute a piece of art to accompany the music and each of i/oβs 12 songs were handed to a world-renowned artist to create an accompanying work, whether paint, photography, sculpture or even Plasticine. The dozen artists make an exceedingly impressive team of collaborators: Ai Weiwei, Nick Cave, Olafur Eliasson, Henry Hudson, Annette Messager, Antony Micallef, David Moreno, Cornelia Parker, Megan Rooney, Tim Shaw, David Spriggs and BarthΓ©lΓ©my Toguo. Another visual link with Peterβs past work is the cover shot. Taken by photographer Nadav Kander, it echoes with the covers of his earlier albums, always present but, with the exception of So, intriguingly obscured or manipulated. These echoes of the past might resonate, but i/o is fundament
